  1. Except that car companies want low gas prices.
  2. Supply does not affect the price of oil?
  3. Or maybe it is not such a big conspiracy and it is because no one cares about Arena Football.
  4. Couldn't we design an four wheel vehicle that solved these problems?
  5. I have always wondered why ATV type vehicles have not been allowed to be on the roadways when motorcycles and such are.
  6. If you want to go. I doubt that there will be much of a scalping premium considering how high they already are.
  7. I enjoyed Playmakers. A shame that the NFL was able to force ESPN to get rid of it.
  8. If you are set on a small car, then I suppose your choices are between the SmartCar, the Yaris and the Fit. My understanding is that the Fit has the best crash test ratings, which should be important with small cars, so maybe think about looking into that as an option? Then again, can a SmartCar be any less safe than being on a motorcycle? And we do not have problems with people taking risks with those.
  9. I have heard this time and time again. Yet as time has gone on, football players have seen more and more of their contracts guaranteed especially under the new CBA. Yes injuries occur more often in the NFL, but why should this affect whether the contracts are guaranteed? These players are injured putting their bodies on the line for their teams. It is not because of a fault of theirs most often that they are hurt. Perhaps if teams had to eat contracts of injured players the might not be so quick to do things like loading up a player with painkillers to play with injuries they should not be playing with. I doubt it would be chaotic. Every team would have the same risks and face the same problems. It would work itself out.
  10. This renegotiating thing is weird to me. We rarely see it in baseball. NFL contracts should mean more than what they do. Guarantee the things and put a stop to this pressure to redo this contracts prematurely. Perhaps 2 years or less must remain before any renegotiating? I don't know. I am sure the CBA geniuses will work it out.
  11. Peters hasn't been at OTA because he wants a raise, but he has not been holding out or threatening to hold out of mandatory training camp or anything I don't think.
  12. I also want to say he had corn rows before those were really popular and that he barely made the team. Did the Panthers pick him in the expansion draft?
  13. This is unfortunate. Analog broadcasts are more faithful to the original visuals, with a warmer, richer picture.
  14. I want to say he was picked up in the expansion draft at some point? I want to say, then, that he played in 1994-5?
  15. Who was that guy on the DL who signed with the Bills for like a year and lived in Toronto while he played with the Bills? I think he was in on it too.
  16. I have often found the most road ragey people have been guys driving their families in minivans and whatnot. I don't understand why one would put their family at risk to prove their manhood.
  17. I think the CRV and Rav4 while good are more girly than the Escape, FWIW.
  18. The Ford Fusion and Subaru Legacy are both mid-sized sedans that have AWD optional or standard.
  19. We treat some animals differently than other animals as a society. That's just the way it is. People can get upset about horses and dogs being slaughtered, but do not get upset about pigs and cattle. I wouldn't get too upset by this "hypocrisy."
  20. It's kind of hard to separate what was a result of military innovation and what was a result of the space program. Still, space exploration should be done for its own sake. Exploring and pushing the boundaries of human achievement have always been something that we do.
  21. Yeah, with these prices I wouldn't expect a successful scalping operation either.
  22. If he has time to make all those different avatars, then he has time to post here and reassure us of his health.
  23. Congrats! I am only on my first year and hope to match you.
  24. I just saw a very interesting documentary related to this subject. It made me think that Stark Industries might warrant closer scrutiny by the federal government.
  25. Maybe next time, guys. Keep running those SETI screen savers; I am sure that you will find your aliens soon...
